Consult a Colleague Terms and Conditions

Updated on: June 02, 2017

By using the Consult a Colleague
Service (the "Service"), you signify your assent to these Terms and
Conditions of use. If you do not agree
to all of these Terms and Conditions, do not use the Service.

The Service, including the colleagues
you consult through the Service (“Consulting Colleagues”), provides a medium to
exchange information to assist you in providing medical advice to your
patient. By providing information to you
through the Service, the Consulting Colleagues are not rendering medical advice
to you or your patient, nor are you or your patient becoming a patient of the
Consulting Colleagues for any purpose whatsoever. The Service makes no representation,
warranty, or guaranty whatsoever as to any information that may be exchanged
through the Service. It is your sole
responsibility to provide medical services to and to decide on proper medical
advice, diagnosis, and treatment for your patients. Neither ASH nor the Service provides medical
advice or services, and the Consulting Colleagues, by virtue of consulting with
you, are not rendering medical advice, providing services, or transacting
business in your jurisdiction.

ASH does not recommend or endorse
any specific tests, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, or other
information that you may obtain through the Service, and disclaims any
representation, warranty, or guaranty as to the same. Reliance on any information provided through
the Service is solely at your own risk.

By using the Service, you agree:

that ASH and the Consulting
Colleagues shall not be liable to you, your institution or your patients for
any liability, loss, or damage whatsoever that may arise from your use of the
Service or the information exchanged therein;

that neither ASH nor any
Consulting Colleague is providing medical advice or services to you or your
patients, that you will not make any representation to the contrary to your
patients, and that you are solely responsible for the proper medical advice,
diagnosis, and treatment of your patients;

subject to limitations imposed
under applicable state or federal laws, to hold harmless each of ASH, each
Consulting Colleague, and each Consulting Colleague's institution in connection
with any legal action that may arise, directly or indirectly, from your use of
the Service; and

not to use any information or
permit use of any information obtained through your use of the Service in
connection with any legal action against ASH, the Consulting Colleagues, or
their respective institutions.
